A Vital Key To Success 2
2 Samuel 5:23 – And when David enquired of the LORD, he said, Thou shalt not go up; but fetch a compass behind them, and come upon them over against the mulberry trees.
To get success doesn’t stop at enquiring from the Lord. After enquiring from the Lord, do we harken to the counsel of the Lord?
From yesterday’s scripture, we saw that Ahab, the king of Israel harken not to the instructions of the Lord. Despite Ahab disguised himself, he was killed according to the instruction of the Lord that forbade him going to Ramothgilead to battle the Syrians – 2 Chronicles 18:1-34. What did it profit Ahab now as he disobeyed God’s counsel? Was Ahab successful??
Today we see another man, David, that enquired of the Lord and the Lord told him no and David listened to the Lord. Was David successful? Yes! David defeated the Philistines, verse 25.
Beloved, do what God ask you to do after seeking His face concerning anything that is bugging your life. Don’t lean on your understanding. The ways of God is foolishness unto the people of this world. God’s ways are not our ways. We just have to trust God despite the condition. I pray that God will give us the listening hears and the doing heart, that we will be successful in our life. Shalom!
